First graders have a unique sense of wonder about everything around them and an enthusiastic desire to learn and grow. My students face challenges daily and overcome them with a sense of strength, curiosity, and pride under the mantra "practice makes progress."
As young learners, my students enjoy engaging in hands-on learning opportunities, as well as technology options, that are centered around their individual learning needs.
With the weather starting to change and get colder, our once perfect record of attendance has started to dwindle as illnesses are inevitably circling their way through the class. The air purifier and replacement filters will provide our classroom with breathing air that is clean and free of impurities. This will create a healthier learning environment where all students will have fewer absences, allowing them to be present and an active learner each day. Their attendance and attentiveness is an important component of student success and these materials will allow them to think clearly while in our classroom.
The gift card for Teachers Pay Teachers will allow me the ability to supplement our curriculum materials for instruction with engaging and thought-provoking independent activities that correlate with our learning intentions. Reinforcement of taught skills is an important way for teachers to ensure student retention and mastery of information.
